IC 1396 - trumpety-trump!

[Rustang]

6 long nights and over 10 hours later, I have my Bi colour Elephant nebula image. This target wasnt in view for me until around 2am so its been a tiring one to capture but I feel its been worth the lack of sleep! The processing colour wise went more towards an SHO Hubble palette rather than a bi colour palette but I really like the result.

Ha- 4hrs 20mins, OIII 6hrs 10mins (all 600 sec subs)

SW80 ED DS Pro

QHY 9 mono with Baader filters.

Stacked in DSS, processed in Photoshop.

Absolutely fantastic @Rustang  Love the colour palette and detail.

Really well done persevering with the same target across 6 nights when just getting those few hours very early in the morning when it was at a suitable altitude.

Thank you, your comment has helped made the long nights worth it 😊
